Well, considering that Bush and Kerry are neck and neck according to most polls, apparently a LOT of people agree with me. Now if Kerry was polling at 99.9999999% to Bush's 0.00000001%, then you'd be dead-on target.

I've said repeatedly here that Bush sucks. But the problem is that Kerry strikes me as being a complete and total disaster waiting to happen. Between his insistence that his past history of appeasement isn't REALLY appeasement, but instead is simply "nuance", and his long-term endorsement of Internationalism to the detriment of America's overall interests, it's not that I think he lacks the qualifications necessary for the office he aspires to, it's that I think he poses a very real, immediate danger to the US Constitution if he takes office. Bush's ability to damage the Constitution has been minimized at this point, since he's basically gotten what he wanted (Patriot), with KERRY'S SUPPORT. In other words, Bush has already "done his worst". His Gay Marriage Amendment was a political stunt, with ZERO chance of passage. Kerry, on the other hand, poses a very real threat of rendering the US Constitution a secondary legal authority by ceding the primary authority to International law and the UN. If that single issue doesn't worry the bejesus out of you, you NEED to read up on the implications. It makes Peak Oil look like a GOOD thing.
